awesome car - the absolute finishing touch would be to drop in one of your really big power engines and have a craack at the top speed by a white saff record that I've heard a rumour may belong to a shy & retiring youthful giant who occasionally mentions it on here

Well, the old man may end up building a big lump for something so maybe we could slip it in the saff first. It's not my end goal for this car nor am I massively interested. I'd rather put my efforts into a track car where I can improve my driving skills as one day I'd like to get into rallying but never say never

Little more.

I got the front to rear fuel lines made and I braised on -6 fittings. Then powder coated black and fitted. The rear parts need slightly adjusting but look good!

What's the need bud? Just excess expense for no benefit at my level IMO.

The modeen is really good to maintain oil temps so gonna stick with that untill I go big power when I'll run a wrc rear oil feed and remote filter and cooler set up

I would ask if having the zorst that close to the bumper would discolour it, but i guess driving it onto and off the trailer wont get it that hot... Hahaha
